So, this seemed like a good idea. If it all goes wrong, I apologize.
I didn't start watching live until 8:45, so we'll start there.
8:45: What the fuck are those red an blue lights on the ultrasound. I be Syd's carying some kind of Rambaldi baby, or maybe i just missed the exposition on that.
9:00: Holy shit, Irina, you'r a manipulative bitch, and I love you for it. "I believe you (so I'll pop a cap in your ass without even blinking.
9:10: Oh, Marshall. You're so not covert. And your friends definitely stole the idea of the car in the classroom from School Ties.
9:14: Watch out, Syd. Irina's giving you the Francinator hug, feigning love while with the face of a killer.
9:15: Whoa Dixon. Take a step back. Cornrows never work. Especially not with that dorky fringe.
9:16-9:18: Jebus, could these commercials be any longer?
9:22: YES! Jack and Irina are the best fake/not-fake married couple. I love these Bristow family missions. And Jack's wearing an ASCOT! AWESOME!!!
9:25: BORING. I don't really give much of a crap about these two (trying to be Sydney and Vaughn version 2.0). They aren't even that attractive.
9:26: Are they going for Italian accents? And could we not do anythign about Sydney's hair?! Just because she's preggers doesn't mean that she needs to have greasy no-volume hair.
9:27: Hey! Devlin! We haven't seen you in a while. Ah, memories. I remembered when every episode was awesome. There was plenty of clandestine operations, crazy costumes, angst, and--best of all--unresolved sexual tension between Syd and Vaughn. Season One, how I miss thee.
9:29: I smell Rambaldi in that safety deposit box. Oh, no, my bad. That's the Horizon thingy they keep talking about. Still probably linked to Rambaldi. I mean, there's only so many episodes left, they have to wrap up that storyline at least in part.
9:30: Ooh, marital spat. Okay, come on, you guys, she's tricked you enough, time to wise up. Irina never doesn't have an agenda. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me five times, how did I make it into the spy business?!
9:31: "Baby's coming." commercial. HOLY SHIT.
9:34: can we just take a moment to admit that American Inventor looks like a horrendous show.
9:36: I love that we can never know if Irina's truly concerned for Sydney's safety or if that just helps her get to her goal (in this case, the mysterious Horizon).
9:39: Bazooka! Who carries a freakin' BAZOOKA to a robbery?!
9:43: Don't mess with a pregnant woman with a gun, whatever you do.
9:45: I thought we were going to get some answers about "truth takes time." No go. Instead, IRINA ORDERED VAUGHN'S DEATH. On the scale of appropriate mother-daughter bonding activities, revealing that you killed your daughter's only love and babydaddy is about -40850888048.
9:47: "I knew I never wanted a child . . . you were simply a means to an end." BITCH! (Though her hair looks absolutely gorgeous.) I totally thought Irina would book it, leaving Sydney alone. Maybe you can be a good agent and an okay grandmother? It appears she's at least going to try . . . for now. We all (both) know that Irina isn't one to stick around.
9:52: The commercials for Invasion are pretty awesome. I don't watch the show, but the commercials kind of make me want to.
9:53: Oh, don't take on SpyDaddy, little girl. He will best you every time. Hey that whole shooting the fire extinguisher and it exploding was totally disproved on Mythbusters. Also, no one's ever dead on Alias (hopefully that applies to Vaughn, too).
9:55: Awww, they're so cute, dysfunctional but cute. We miss Vaughn too, Sydney. Awwww, Syd's a mom. Yay!
9:57: I told you Irina wouldn't stick around.
9:58: Victor Garber's so awesome in this scene, completely letting down the tough exterior and being a grandfather.
9:59: Bhutan. WHAT THE FUCK?!?! OH PLEASE OH PLEASE LET VAUGHN BE ALIVE. YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!
Next time: KICK ASS! Will and Ana Espinosa return!
